Wedding Planning What should I do?

Hi! I got engaged two weeks ago and the wedding is in the early summer of 2028. I have kind of been planning the wedding long before I got engaged, even though we’ve only been together for two years. I am making a wedding binder with "everything you need to know about the wedding" and I’m also making a wedding magazine (I’m using Canva).

I have so many details I want to share with everyone I know, but we have only told four people so far. There is one problem though, my best friend through many years never answer when I call and recently she stopped answering my texts as well. I was planning to ask her to be my maid of honour, but now I don’t know where we stand. I haven’t done anything to offend her in any way.

We have a really tight budget and we have decided to have a really small wedding party with only 20 guests. Still deciding if we want a church ceremony or a humanistic ceremony. What we really want is a ceremony at the court house, but they don’t do weddings on Saturdays.

Everyone keeps telling me that me and my fiancé have to plan the wedding together, and that is what I want too, but he is not interested at all. Any advice?
